Chapter 52 Isn't it just a color TV?

No one mentioned Song Hua's past suffering, nor did anyone express meaningless sympathy.

Zheng Wenbin just took them for a walk around the school gate and then said goodbye and left.

Song Hua thought he was a nice guy, and joked with Song Rui that she would give him a boiled egg whenever he came to dinner in the future.

Song Rui smiled, but her eyes were fixed on the residential building opposite the school gate.

The most common old-style residential building in later generations has six floors, with people living on each floor.

But Song Rui knew that in a few years, all the windows on the first floor of these street-facing residential buildings would be replaced with doors and become commercial storefronts.

In order to promote the economy, the government recognizes the commercial nature of window-to-door conversions, and business licenses and other items can be processed normally.

Such facades have remained common until later generations.

If Song Hua's business can be successful, he can buy a first floor and convert it into a store.

It was still early, so Song Hua planned to go to the second-hand market and buy a suitable cart.

Song Rui gave her the money and took the child home.

As soon as I got home, the person delivering the color TV arrived.

Xu Chunying and He Jinyan clung to the broken glass window and watched the large color TV enter the yard.

Song Rui originally thought it would be the most common 18-inch size, but after moving into the yard she found out it was actually 24 inches.

The new and shiny tiles attract people's attention.

It's completely different from that old black and white TV.

Xu Chunying couldn't help herself and rushed out to pull the people who were moving the goods, "This is what my son bought, right? Move it over here, over here."

The young man who delivered the color TV was a little overwhelmed and said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, auntie, my brother Ye said he bought it for my sister-in-law."

"What are you buying for my sister-in-law? You have no shame! When someone has something good, they give it to my parents first. Hurry up and move it to my room."

Song Rui smiled and said, "Yes, let's move to that room. It's just right that the old lady will give us the money. Such a big color TV will cost more than 2,000 yuan."

"Sister-in-law knows what's good. It's two thousand and eight."

When Xu Chunying heard this, she quickly took two steps back, fearing that the TV would fall to the ground and she would be blackmailed again.

After searching her family's pockets, the total amount was less than 2,000 yuan.

"You're trying to steal my money! I don't have any! Move out now! We don't want this house anymore. How much money do you earn? You're spending it like this. It's crazy!"

Song Rui smiled and said, "There's really nothing we can do. The child's father is willing to give us flowers, so let's move into the house quickly."

The delivery guy said "oh" and started working with his people to move things and install the antenna.

When Nan Nan saw that there was a TV at home, she jumped for joy.

Seeing her happy, Song Rui was happy too.

She didn't go into the house, but moved a stool and sat at the door watching.

Seeing Nan Nan happy, seeing Xu Chunying feeling sorry for her son's money and her face turning green, seeing He Jinyan throwing things around in anger.

Not only did she sit there, she also took out a handful of melon seeds and started eating them while watching.

Oh, these days are becoming more and more promising.

After installing the TV, the delivery guy also changed the program.

Song Rui went into the house to get him money, but the young man refused again and again, "Sister-in-law, you can just call me Dongzi. My brother Ye said that it's not easy for you to earn money, so he won't let me take your money. He will give it to me when he comes back."

Song Rui chuckled twice, "That's not what he said originally, right? What did he say exactly?"

Would Ling Ye say such nice words?

impossible!

Dongzi saw that his beautification was exposed and laughed, "Yes, my brother Ye's original words were..."

At this point, he put his hands on his waist, lowered his voice, and raised his head and said, "Tell your sister-in-law! She works hard to earn some money, so she can keep it for herself to buy candy. We don't need her to buy things for the family!"

Song Rui was so amused that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

You bastard, you knew it would be like this.

She didn't insist on giving the money anymore, just kept it for herself.

I just don’t believe that she has always earned less than Ling Ye!

When the day comes when she surpasses him, just wait and see how she crushes his chauvinism to the ground!

Song Rui didn't pay, but she felt embarrassed to let people make a wasted trip.

She simply gave him a few of Song Hua's braised pig's trotters and pig's ears, and also gave Dongzi a few pairs of hairpins to give away when he took him back.

Dongzi didn't take anything else but just accepted the pairs of hairpins.

Song Rui guessed that he had children at home, so she gave him a few more handfuls of candy.

Usually, that bag of candy is Nan Nan’s most precious thing.

Now that there was a color TV there, she didn't even glance at the Candy that was walking away. She was so excited that she just wanted to see Sun Wukong.

Unfortunately, Sun Wukong is not broadcast 24 hours a day.

There are not many TV channels nowadays, and the programs are limited. At dinner time, all that is broadcast is the news.

Nan Nan usually doesn’t like to watch it.

But today the TV screen had color, and she was able to watch the boring news with great interest.

The two small braids on top of her head that were always flying up and down now hung quietly beside her ears.

Song Rui looked at her and always felt that her daughter looked like a fair and tender long-eared rabbit.

After rubbing her little face, Song Rui went to cook.

The mother and daughter, who have recently been attacked by Song Hua’s braised food, no longer want to eat meat.

I just simply stir-fried two vegetarian dishes.

The meal was ready and Ling Xiaodan and Ling Xiaojun were also home from school.

Ling Jianguo and Ling Feng followed into the yard.

The Ling family is bustling again.

Ling Xiaodan and Ling Xiaojun saw the big color TV in the west wing through the window, and came over greedily and lay on the window.

It seemed that the people who laughed at Nan Nan for climbing the window in the morning were not them.

Children can pretend to forget, but adults can’t.

He Jinyan was already angry, and now she felt that her own children were slapping her in the face.

"Look, what's so good about it! Isn't it just a color TV? What's so great about it that's worth your attention! If you don't mind this shabby thing, get back here!"

Ling Xiaodan was scared and wanted to leave by pulling her brother.

But Ling Xiaojun didn't care about that and didn't move.

He Jinyan was so angry that her eyes turned red. She wiped her tears and cursed: "No matter whether it's a man or a child, no one is willing to fight for my honor! They all live by stepping on my skin! Why am I so lowly that I can only be bullied all day long! This life is nothing!"

Ling Feng now feels annoyed when he hears her mumbling those things.

He knew that He Jinyan just disliked him because he earned too little.

Not as good as the third brother, who brings home lots of money.

But she didn't think about what the third brother's wife looked like and what she looked like.

Besides, the third one is not stable at all. He may make money today, but what if he loses it tomorrow?

What if the policy changes later and he is arrested for speculation?

But he was a regular worker in a state-owned factory, with a stable job for life.

These stupid women are so short-sighted.

I can only see the little bit of profit in front of me.

Ling Feng was dissatisfied and said, "Why are you arguing? What does the child know? Isn't it just watching TV? Song Rui didn't say anything, so it's not worth it for you to make such a fuss. It's so annoying."

It would have been fine if he didn't say anything, but as soon as he said it, He Jinyan exploded.

"Yes, she didn't say anything. She is magnanimous and generous. I am really petty. What's wrong?"

He Jinyan quickly walked over and pulled the two children over. She couldn't bear to hit Ling Xiaojun, so she slapped Ling Xiaodan with her palm.

He was beaten and cried continuously.

Although Song Rui doesn't like Ling Xiaodan, she also despises He Jinyan's behavior of only beating her daughter.

But she also knew that it would be better if she didn't speak.

Once you speak up for Ling Xiaodan, He Jinyan will beat you even harder.
